Hi everyone!

When creating a setting description we don't simply describe what we notice. We have to consider all of our five senses.

Today we are considering our hearing.

Watch the video below and listen carefully to the sounds the fireworks make.

Also:

Think about the sounds the people watching might make.

Think about the sounds animals around may make.

Think about the sound of the weather while outside in Autumn.

There are two ways to record sounds in words:

Onomatopoeia: the use of sound words such as boom, bang and crash!

Action words: such as whistling, banging, barking, chattering and laughing.

Use the worksheet below to record all of the sound words that you can think of.
